Christmas Eve - the BEST Christmas Pageant Ever!

For the last couple of years we have done a Christmas Pageant/Play at Grandma and Grandpa Southern's house on Christmas Eve. This year we livened it up a bit by having the kids read some of the parts. They did great!

Mieka was a shepherd this year. And Annika was at first a wicked Nephite, but then decided that she was nice after all. :)

Yay! Now's she's "Repentant Annika" - praying with Nephi for the coming of Christ.

After we got home the girls opened their Christmas pajamas and we put out the cookies and milk for Santa.


Dave and I didn't get to go to bed until 12:30 because we didn't want to go to sleep until Annika did. Amazingly she had little trouble getting out of bed at 7:00. :)
